Re: problem with ld.so.conf Redhat Enterprise

Hi,

kjuliff@xxxxxxxxx <kjuliff@xxxxxxxxx> told us:

I am getting an error when I attempt to run a unixODBC program.

This is the error

ODBCConfig: error while loading shared libraries: libSM.so.6: cannot
open shared
object file: No such file or directory

You can see from the ldd output that the correct directory is searched.

What could be the problem.

[kcj@kylie lib64]$ ldd /usr/X11R6/lib64/libSM.so.6
libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib64/libICE.so.6
(0x000000306f500000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/tls/libc.so.6 (0x000000326d800000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x000000552aaaa000)


you are running 64-Bit RHEL, but are you sure your ODBC program is
64-Bit? I have seen such problems with 32-Bit programs on 64-Bit RHEL,
that search their libraries not in the 'lib64' dirs but in the 'lib'
dirs. I would try to run a 'strace' on that program, to see where it
trys to find it's libraries.
